Walmart
was founded by Sam Walton in 1962 with the opening
of the first Walmart store in Rogers, Ark. The company incorporated as Wal-Mart
Stores, Inc. in 1969 and was first publicly traded on the New York Stock
Exchange in 1972.

In
1983, we opened the first Sam’s Club membership warehouse and
in 1988 opened the first Walmart supercenter, which features a complete grocery
department in addition to general merchandise.

Today
in the U.S., Walmart operates more than 4,900
retail facilities, including 4,281 Walmart stores and 640 Sam’s Club
warehouses. For fiscal year 2014, Walmart U.S. net sales were more than $279
billion, and Sam’s Club net sales were more than $57 billion.
